Pros

The environment was very fast paced with emphasis on shipping products as quickly as possible while still maintaining a high quality bar.

Cons

At some point, decision making became too "top-down", which made it hard to stay engaged to products.

Pros

Work cultured is over-hyped, but its not that bad. They were very understanding and allowed you to work from home a lot.

Cons

You get to do pager duty. Initially they expect you to be on-call during vacations, etc. Amazon doesn't have vacations for Thanksgiving or New years.
